Academically, this school Rocks! However, if your child is one who needs extra nurturing, this is not the place for them. Discipline is not consistent - and being a tattle-tell is rewarded (biblical principle???). Some of the teachers are sarcastic yet discipline the kids for using the same language.
... Read more The kids talk disrespectfully to each other. Enrollment has dropped nearly 40% over last two years. Few parents are involved in more than just their child's classroom! Teachers are rarely a part of the Parent & Teacher Fellowship. Some great teachers...some past time to go. Great vision...needs to be executed! Read less

As a professional it is extremely important to place your child in a child that has a 'great' match. Coast Christian meets every criteria... God-focused and academically superior. This school by far excels and exceeds the criteria needed for any child to succeed. I am a fully-involved parent who loves

We are in our second year at Coast Christian School and I could not be happier. The teachers & staff are concerned about building the whole student -- both in academics & Spirit. The principal offers a round table time for parents each month & I have seen many improvements made based on these discussions.

I have taught at a couple other Christian schools in the area and Coast surpasses them, by far. The staff work together, pray for each other, help one another and the Principal is exceptional. She is the reason I chose to teach here. I also know for a fact that the church, Coast Christian Fellowship,

As for supply lists - have you attended other private schools? The lists are comparable. Teachers, administration, and the church cannot supply all our needs or the needs of this school. Do you know what the average teacher takes out of his/her own budget to buy items for class projects, conferences, and parties? No school is perfect nor will anyone find the perfect school. I love Coast Christian School. Read less

The best part about this school is that it is a Christian school and my children can be in God s word daily. However, there are many areas this school is lagging! It has just lost the field they used to do PE on. PE is now conducted on a blacktop surface. The bathrooms are completely substandard! The

I have done thorough research of other local Christian Schools and others provide the same level of academics and safety but are much CLEANER! Many parents I have talked to are pulling their children and going to other schools. The church does not support the school financially, but makes the decisions. Many of the staff kids who attend the church don't even attend the school!!! Says a lot in itself! Read less

Coast Christian School has been a blessing to me and my family. The atmosphere is very family-oriented and the teachers are very caring and know how to maximize class time for teaching.

While researching other schools in the area and speaking to those in my community, I found that Coast Christian School has the most to offer in the areas of academics and extra-curricular activities.

The principal has a heart for God...however, the school has Some teachers that do not communicate well, never seem to be cheerful, and are not pleasant to be around...and you can't move your child once a teacher is selected.

This school will 'nickle and dime' you to the poor house. They even charge $25 if your child is late to school. The list of supplies required is outrageous (line paper of lower grades, paper towels, soap, hand sanitizer, copy paper, etc.)! My child's teacher is non-responsive to my communication.
